In Name Only
She said I do.
She did not want to,
But now it is too late.
A ceremony,
A ring, a signed contract
And witnesses congregate.
She has his name;
He has not her heart.
They sealed it with a kiss.
He's hateful and mean.
She's a beautiful queen
Who suffered long with this.
She found someone
That loves her heart,
And she also loves him.
But they have children,
And both are married.
This comes between them.
She's in shackles;
He's in chains,
They struggle to be free.
Their bond so strong
Can't be explained away
Like a tossing sea.
They've built a house
Where they wait to live
No matter how long it takes.
She has his heart
But not his name;
For this moment he aches.
